The first wave of Summer Sale discounts hit PS Store today

Lots of PS4, PS3 and PS Vita offers to be had

As is customary, we can’t not have a Summer Sale, so here it is! Over the course of the next four weeks you will find a ton of discounts to take advantage of. We’ll be rolling out these discounts in batches (it’s a lot of work to push out nearly 200 items) so you must certainly check back each Wednesday to see what gets swapped in.

Today we will begin with a selection of PS4 titles courtesy of EA, from hugely popular FIFA 14 to Need for Speed Rivals, including DLC. Alongside this we also have part one of our PlayStation 3 and PS Vita discounts going live for two weeks before being swapped for part two.

Battlefield and Need for Speed, again, every sale. Total price of BF4, Madden and NFS is 105 euro, which is around 140$. At the same time Xbox One got EA access, with a library of their games for only 5$. Yeah, the value doesn’t really add up. With the amazing value EA offers you could subscribe for well over 2 years and get a mass of games instead of this “sale.”

I really dont know what you people expect, the ps4 is so new that you still cant even get a game on it for a decent price yet somehow you expect it all to be as cheap as ps3 games.

All you people keep complaining about how we never get ps4 discounts so they threw some in here, its not sony that decides discount prices its the publishers, and why would publishers put their game on sale for so cheap when its still making large amounts of money!? and on top of that its EA, if they arent doubling the price and telling you its a sale than you should consider yourself lucky.

They might have done it due to EA access releasing at the same time. 5$ for a library of new gen games right at start? Amazing value for players, PS4 should also have it instead of being forced to even look at those joke EA sales.

Was really excited for this sale, but unfortunately it’s turned out to be pretty middling seeing as, yet again, a majority of the games on sale have either been given away for free with PS Plus or have been cheaper in previous sales.

Hopefully better deals will be added at a later date, because there’s not many games that have piqued my interest in this first wave.

I was hoping for Injustice PS4/Vita with a similar price to what the US got. I don’t usually compare regional pricing but when they get the game for $4 and we are offered it for £14.99 then something is very wrong!
Will the PS4 version be on sale at some point?

For months and months before PS4 was released we kept getting to told how it was so much easier to develop games on than the PS3. So why is BF4 £19.99 on PS3 but £29.99 on PS4? A 50% price difference is ridiculous.

Wow, we waited for this joke for 2 week? You guy’s are…
Half of the games had a greater discount earlier, the other half was the part of the IGC.
And the prices are ridiculous. Have you seen the US Blog?
Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition (PS3) $8.40 for US, £10.79 for UK.
Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition (PSV) $4.20 for US, £13.49 for UK, LOL!
Here’s a deal: let the Vita support multi accounts like PS3, or let the user migrate their profile, and everybody will be happy, and nobody will care about your useless sales. Thank you…

It’s a good game and the main story will keep you busy for 30+ hours, but the extra mode afterwards is BORING; I couldn’t force myself to finish it. Maybe they will discount it when the sequel is about to release.

Danganronpa came out late Feb and Danganronpa2 is out early Sept. That’s actually quite a small window between releases. Japanese games always seem to hold their value long after their release unlike western AAA titles. It’s also probable they are released in fewer numbers than other games which is why they end up keeping release price. I haven’t seen it cheap in the UK either (lowest was £21.99 used)

I guess you should be commended for a better sale (PS4-wise) than the joke which was the COD sale, but the prices are still more than ridiculous. NFS is the only one of those titles, as far as I’m aware, without a sequel coming in the immediate future so nobody in their right minds will buy a game they cannot get any re-sell value from which is over half the cost of the new title.

This probably varies from what I read in most comments here and on the interwebs, but I’d prefer something along the lines of a sweeping 10% discount on the indie titles, I know there’s few ‘AAA’ titles around so those that people would purchase already have been, and then an extra discount on some/all for PS+.

From the way I see it the PS store is only good value for games which don’t get a retail release, since its their only avenue for sales, so entice people to buy these games and not the ones they will on the whole be purchased at a retail store where they are still cheaper and the option on trade-ins, etc exist.

Arkham Origins a cold cold heart dlc, excellent been waiting for this. Keep it up. PS4 deals as expected are still not good. Something for Infamous Second Son would be nice! Dunasty Warriors 8 extreme legends complete edition PS4 deal would also be appreciated, has been for the other two platforms and PC.

Well I was missing AC Liberation on the Vita so I’ve nabbed that (as I’ve finished Rogue Legacy on the PC already), otherwise not really bothered with the rest. Seems like a fair bit of variety though in fairness.

Mind Zero -> depends on price… but it might be still better deal to buy retail edition (if you will find good deal it might be even cheaper… but normally price for retail should be 15-20% higher than here)

Concepion 2 -> it is good game, personally I refuse to buy it because discriminATLUS didn’t give us retail edition (but that’s my whim, to everony else it might be good time to grab it)
